Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. An electronic device, comprising: a display; at least one processor; and a memory configured to store instructions that when executed are configured to enable the at least one processor to: control the display to display an execution screen of a first application including at least one first element and an execution screen of a second application including at least one second element, identify an occurrence of an event for displaying an execution screen of a virtual keyboard application while displaying the execution screens of the first and second applications, based on the occurrence of the event, identify at least one first color value related to the displayed at least one first element included in the execution screen of the first application and at least one second color value related to the displayed at least one second element included in the execution screen of the second application, and control the display to display the execution screen of the virtual keyboard application based on at least part of the at least one first color value and the at least one second color value together with the execution screen of the first application and the execution screen of the second application.

2

2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the instructions are configured to enable the at least one processor to: based on the virtual keyboard application being executed, identify at least one first parameter including information related to the first application and the at least one first color value and at least one second parameter including information related to the second application and the at least one second color value, and identify a theme of the virtual keyboard application based on at least part of the at least one first parameter and the at least one second parameter.

3

3. The electronic device of claim 2 , wherein the memory is configured to store first information for a first theme corresponding to a first color value and second information for a second theme corresponding to a second color value, and wherein the instructions are configured to enable the at least one processor to: identify a specific color value based on at least part of the at least one first color value and the at least one second color value, identify whether the identified specific color value corresponds to the first theme or the second theme based on the first information and the second information which are stored in the memory, based on the identified specific color value corresponding to the first color value, identify the first theme corresponding to the first color value as the theme of the virtual keyboard application, and based on the identified specific color value corresponding to the second color value, identify the second theme corresponding to the second color value as the theme of the virtual keyboard application.

4

4. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the instructions are configured to enable the at least one processor to: identify a theme setting state of the virtual keyboard application, and control the display to display the execution screen of the virtual keyboard application based on at least part of the identified theme setting state.

5

5. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the instructions are configured to enable the at least one processor to: identify a state of the electronic device, and control the display to display the execution screen of the virtual keyboard application based on at least part of the identified state of the electronic device.

6

6. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the instructions are configured to enable the at least one processor to: control the display to display the execution screen of the virtual keyboard application based on a first theme identified based on at least part of the at least one first color value and the at least one second color value.

7

7. The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein the instructions are configured to enable the at least one processor to: when a state of the electronic device switches to a first state, control the display to display the execution screen of the virtual keyboard application based on a second theme corresponding to the first state instead of the first theme.

8

8. A method of controlling an electronic device, the method comprising: displaying an execution screen of a first application including at least one first element and an execution screen of a second application including at least one second element on a display of the electronic device; identifying an occurrence of an event for displaying an execution screen of a virtual keyboard application while displaying the execution screens of the first and second applications; based on the occurrence of the event, identifying at least one first color value related to the displayed at least one first element included in the execution screen of the first application and at least one second color value related to the displayed at least one second element included in the execution screen of the second application; and displaying the execution screen of the virtual keyboard application based on at least part of the at least one first color value and the at least one second color value together with the execution screen of the first application and the execution screen of the second application.

9

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising: based on the virtual keyboard application being executed, identifying at least one first parameter including information related to the first application and the at least one first color value and at least one second parameter including information related to the second application and the at least one second color value; and identifying a theme of the virtual keyboard application based on at least part of the at least one first parameter and the at least one second parameter.

10

10. The method of claim 8 , further comprising: identifying a theme setting state of the virtual keyboard application; and displaying the execution screen of the virtual keyboard application on the display based on at least part of the identified theme setting state.

11

11. The method of claim 8 , further comprising: identifying a state of the electronic device; and displaying the execution screen of the virtual keyboard application on the display based on at least part of the identified state of the electronic device.

12

12. The method of claim 8 , further comprising: displaying the execution screen of the virtual keyboard application on the display based on a first theme identified based on at least part of the at least one first color value and the at least one second color value.

13

13. The method of claim 9 , wherein displaying the execution screen of the virtual keyboard application on the display: identifying a specific color value based on at least part of the at least one first color value and the at least one second color value; identifying whether the identified specific color value corresponds to a first theme or a second theme based on first information and second information which are stored in a memory of the electronic device; based on the identified specific color value corresponding to at least one first color value, identifying the first theme corresponding to the at least one first color value as the theme of the virtual keyboard application; and based on the identified specific color value corresponding to at least one second color value, identifying the second theme corresponding to the at least one second color value as the theme of the virtual keyboard application.

14

14. An electronic device, comprising: a display; at least one processor; and a memory configured to store instructions that when executed are configured to enable the at least one processor to: control the display to display an execution screen of a first application including at least one first element and an execution screen of a second application including at least one second element, identify an occurrence of an event for displaying a popup window while displaying the execution screens of the first and second applications, based on the occurrence of the event, identify at least one first color value related to the displayed at least one first element included in the execution screen of the first application and at least one second color value related to the displayed at least one second element included in the execution screen of the second application, and based on at least part of the at least one first color value and the at least one second color value, control the display to display a popup window to cover at least part of the execution screen of the first application and the execution screen of the second application.
